2013 La Liga champions FC Barcelona is set to sign Arsenal’s Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny (23) for £65millions. Club’s manager Gerardo Martino is reported to be in Warsaw, Poland to complete the signing.

Martino said “Yes, we are here for the Szczesny deal, but I watched Poland Nationals’ training session last 2 days. And I’m very impressed by Lewandowski as well. We’re going to make an offer Lewandowski while signing Szczesny. Hoping to return home with 2 great Polish talents.” Meanwhile Szczesny’s rejecting to make comments, the transfer news have made it to headlines on Spanish media.

My name is Fatmir Boshnjaku, and I am new writer who mainly focuses on Albanian football, particularly their National Team.

Recently, I was able to catch an interview with a former player (Klodian Duro) of the Albania National Team, and I am here to share the discussion I had with this player.

During an interview I had with Klodian Duro, he stated that if Albania qualifies for the World Cup 2014, he believes Skela, Lala, and himself deserve a call-up from De Biasi, the coach of the Albania National Team.

Duro said:

“Skela, Lala, and I have played many hard and long years for Albania. We kept this team alive. We went through many managers, tough groups, and other obstacles; however, we always gave it 100 percent and made the team more entertaining to watch. Over time, we finally had to take a break. But if Albania qualifies and goes to Brazil, we are ready to play and should get a call up from De Biasi. It is only fair for us to finish what we started. This new Albania team got lucky with their current group, and it is very difficult to stay back and not participate in what we should be a part of.”

After that very bold and strict statement, Duro and I broke the tension by laughing at a humorous joke he made:

“I would also like a free vacation to Brazil. My family and I can use one. We are getting sick of Durres.”

There is currently no word from Coach De Biasi. But with their strong relationship with Armand Duka, the head of the Albanian Football Association, it is very possible that Skela, Lala, and Duro will make their return to the Albanian National Team. Kaçe, Abrashi, and Vullnet Basha will likely be the players to step back to make room.

Thank you for reading, and I am very happy to share my first article with Albanian fans all over the world. Une Besoj!

The NCAA today issued a statement that, following a review of the tapes from last night by the NCAA Officiating Oversight Committee, the result of last night’s historic upset by the Louisville Lady Cardinals over the previously top-ranked Baylor Lady Bears was being overturned due to egregious errors committed by the referees during throughout the game.

“We watched the tape and it was just clear as day,” said director of officials Mike Hunt. “The officials were simply failing to do their jobs, and we won’t allow that to rob the greatest women’s player of all-time of a chance to play for a national championship.”

When asked whether Kim Mulkey’s outburst following the game had anything to do with the decision, Hunt said, “well, have you met Kim? I can’t say that I want to be on her bad side.”

On the verge of signing his huge contract, which could have potentially made him the highest paid player in NFL history, the Green Bay Packers and the Oakland Raiders have come to a trade agreement for Aaron Rodgers.

The Packers will receive a 1st and 2nd round draft pick this year and a 1st and 2nd round draft pick in next years draft.

On October 12th, the Iceland National Team earned a significant 3 points against Albania in the World Cup 2014 Qualifiers. Group E contains many lower tier teams, so football fans around the world will be in for a surprise during the World Cup in Brazil.

Due to numerous speculations, FIFA organized tests to perform on the players of the Iceland Squad. The test shows evidence of several Iceland players using illegal drugs, such as steroids.

FIFA has yet to decide on a punishment. Their two options are:
(1) Forfeit Iceland from the qualifier, along with their points; and omit all Iceland’s results from the Group E Table
(2) Allow Iceland to continue their qualifier, but force Iceland to forfeit all their previously earned points. A win or loss against Iceland, the Group E table will be adjusted so that every team that played Iceland so far has earned a win.

Albania could very well be looking into heading into the World Cup 2014 Brazil. This would be Albania’s first entrance to a major tournament. Cyprus has also significantly increased their chances of making a World Cup 2014 appearance.
